Im trying to install a package named "rgeos" on R 3.3, but when I type
install.packages("rgeos") But it returns me the following error (same happens with other packages, but not all the packages):
> * installing *source* package ‘rgeos’ ... ** package ‘rgeos’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked configure: CC: gcc configure: CXX: g++ configure: rgeos: 0.3-19 checking for /usr/bin/svnversion... no configure: svn revision: 524 checking for geos-config... no no configure: error: geos-config not found or not executable.

Go into R, click on Packages (at the top of the R console), then click on "Install package(s) from local zip files", then find the zip file with arm from wherever you just saved it. Do the same thing to install each of the other packages you want to install.
It seems that when running R in Linux is necessary to install some build tools. As in this case, in the terminal:
sudo apt-get install libgeos-dev Then try package install again.
